That Is All Meryl Streep GIF

I posted on AIBU last year so am doing the same:
https://www.mumsnet.com/talk/am_i_being_unreasonable/5329008-to-ask-if-youll-be-watching-the-met-gala-2025-tonight

Why they dont do it on a sunday night, ive no idea 🙄🙄

Or even a Saturday?!

Anyway - will anyone stay up to watch the red carpet? They dont film the actual gala which is weird but anyway

This year's dress code is: Fashion is Art and the theme is: Costume Art

Celebs are boycotting because Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez are going. I mean, what is the point, none of you are good people anyway 😫

Hoping to see Kim K, Rihanna, Beyonce, Law Roach (i dont think Zendaya is going)

Thoughts?

I'm bailing for tonight. See you for a debrief tomorrow and again next year.

Isha ambani absolutely killed it with the jewellery (although I think her family have an insane private collection of jewels)
Katy Perry is interesting, not sure what I think 🤔

Well usually photos get auto approved but I think the thread where women keep posting photos of their breasts to show off abscesses has triggered manual approval of all pictures. 🤦🏼‍♀️

Hopefully all the ones on this thread will appear in the morning.

Valeriekat · 05/05/2026 02:55

Well I will but only because I am in NY visiting my son our invites were lost in the post I assume!

Is everybody a ‘Chair’ of some kind?

Co-chairs, honorary co-chairs, chairs of the Gala, Chairs of host committee …

And they all look nuts.

I love Cara Delevigne’s Ralph Lauren gown.

I have to agree with this. I actually thinks she's the best dressed out of all of them.

She looked absolutely amazing at Harry and megs wedding too, dressed in a suit

It’s tacky and quite frankly tasteless in this climate. We are being told we are going to have to adopt a new way of living due to the Iran war; less holidays, use less fuel etc etc and there they all are on parade. I’ve never watched it anyway but the only celebrities I have time for are the ones that are boycotting it.

Whats the podcast? 👀

It's called Every Outfit on SATC. It's pop culture and fashion but they do a monthly SATC rewatch episode and it gets talked about in most episodes as they're obsessed with it 😁

mumofoneAloneandwell · 04/05/2026 22:12

😭😭 thank you @SpringIsSpringing2026

We should get you and Anna Wintour together sometime

🤣yeah, I'd definitely be wearing sunglasses too!

mumofoneAloneandwell · 04/05/2026 19:09

I've got a choice of looks for tonight's judge fest

A black t shirt dress with a hole in
A pink t shirt dress with stains from that time I painted the hallway

🤔

ooooh....
real fashion!!
what did you decide on?

😩😄

Its a huge night in the fashion world, dah-ling!

If that's ‘fashion’ then thank goodness I am unfashionable.
I’ve never seen such a gabble of ridiculous, ugly outfits in my life (and the extreme plastic surgery that many think makes them beautiful!)

Effervescentfrothy · 05/05/2026 08:30

BridgetJonesV2 · 04/05/2026 13:48

It was this.....it just seems so tacky and desperate from a Mother with kids.

Oh my God, that’s horrific

Totally agree . Nicole Kidman parading around with her 17 year old daughter who seems to have become her plus one. She seems determined for Sunday to be part of that vacuous world of modelling and emptiness instead of actually having a career.

EasternStandard · 05/05/2026 08:43

Just looking at some pics rather than watching. Amanda Seyfried has a pretty sensible dress, she looks really good, make up and hair and generally.

HoldMyWine · 05/05/2026 09:09

Emily Blunt looked so classy.
I did like Eileen Gu’s bubble dress.

PullTheBricksDown · 05/05/2026 09:12

Liked Naomi Watts and Charli xcx's dresses best. Heidi Klum's statue outfit was a proper out there Met Gala effort, well done to her! Likewise Beyoncé's skeleton frock and Kim K got into the spirit. Liked Hailey Bieber's outfit too. I like Emily Blunt as an actor but hers was a bit too 'fancy top with black trousers' - that's the kind of thing I might wear to the Met Gala which is not what I hope to see!

HoldMyWine · 05/05/2026 09:19

I liked Heidi Klim’s too , she doesn’t take herself too seriously.
Agree Beyoncé looked amazing as well.

ShockingBritain · 05/05/2026 09:28

I watched a clip about it this morning. To me it seemed famous and/or extremely rich people posing in ridiculous outfits. Not my thing. Borefest to some and others suck up their heroes waving to the plebs.
